My Hogwarts has a serious problem.

Chapter 434, Section 431: A Stupid Donkey

Lynn remained silent for a long time.

He was pondering Grindelwald's words, while also recalling the period immediately following his "transmigration."

At that time, his body was only three years old. One night, Lin Beiluo, who had his own consciousness and thoughts, took over this body and seized control of him.

Now that I think about it, if he had traveled over and taken over this body, where would Lynn's original soul have gone?

As far as he knew, the boy named Lynn hadn't encountered any accidents at that time and had been living peacefully in the orphanage.

If he hadn't met with an accident, and his own soul had transmigrated and taken over his body, why hadn't his original soul been found inside him?

Lynn didn't immediately believe Grindelwald's words, but he did discover his own doubts.

However, the most noteworthy point about him right now is not whether his arrival in this world was a time travel or a rebirth.

The question is why Grindelwald knows him so well, even better than he knows himself.

"I want to know, how do you know all this?"

He asked the question again, and this time Grindelwald did not evade it and spoke up.

Before I explain to you why I know this, I must first ask you something: do you know about the world of the dead?

"I learned some things while researching ghosts."

"It's good to know. It's not a problem if you don't know much. Because of the existence of ghosts, it can be proven that the world of the dead exists. The reason why those ghosts did not go to the world they were supposed to go to is simply because they still had strong obsessions when they were alive and were unwilling to face death."

Grindelwald looked at Lynn with a smile on his face.

"Just like Albus often said, for a sane person, death is just another great adventure. You may not have lived in this world in your previous life, but the kingdoms of the dead in both worlds are the same. After your soul finds a new home and is reborn here, the memories from the other world do not disappear with it, but continue to remain with this part of your life."

"As for why I know these things, you may know that I have some innate abilities that ordinary people don't have."

Lynn frowned; he knew what made Grindelwald so special.

"prophecy?"

"That's right. Even though my magic has faded and my strength is not what it used to be, prophecy is an ability I was born with. Back then, wizards called people like me prophets."

Lynn couldn't help but ask another question.

"Is an innate ability to foresee the future really that powerful, allowing one to see a person's past and present lives?"

Grindelwald shook his head and explained.

"Of course it's not that powerful. If it were, I would have known my fate as soon as I met Albus, so how could I still be here? However, when I first saw you, my prophetic talent was never so fully utilized. The day Kira brought you here, I saw your past life and part of your present life."

Why is this happening?

"It might be related to the fact that your past life wasn't from this world, or it might just be that we're related by blood. I can see more in you."

After Grindelwald finished speaking, the small house fell silent.

Neither of them spoke. Lynn was in a daze. Before coming here, he had never thought he would know these things, nor had he ever imagined that things would turn out this way.

Although whether he came from another time or was reborn doesn't affect him now, in a sense, some things are different.

This means that his parents, whom he had never met before, were his biological parents in this life, and that their deaths were to protect him.

The man sitting right across from him, Grindelwald, was indeed his closest blood relative, so he had no reason to reject him or treat him like a stranger.

Grindelwald didn't interrupt Lynn's thoughts, knowing that this wasn't something Lynn could easily accept.

For so long, he had believed that his soul did not belong to this world. Then one day, someone told him that it was all just his illusion. From the moment he was born into this world, he had been a person of this world, and both his body and soul had been marked.

Rather than just a soul wandering here, a mere traveler.

"How can you be so sure that what you're seeing is correct?" Lynn asked, pulling at her hair.

Grindelwald said calmly, "I can't prove that everything I've seen is correct, but at least so far, I haven't made any mistakes."

Lynn felt that this was absurd. He had always thought that although he was not a particularly smart person, he was at least not stupid either.

But now he always feels like a stupid donkey.

Having lived in this world for so many years, he still doesn't understand whether he's a transmigrator or a reincarnated being. He must have wasted all those online novels he read in his previous life.

However, being reborn after transmigrating isn't necessarily a bad thing. At least now he doesn't have to worry about being killed by Grindelwald in a fit of rage.

"Uncle Zeng?"

Lynn tentatively called out the name he should use for Grindelwald again.

"So, in terms of both soul and body, you are truly my great-uncle?"

Grindelwald looked at him without blinking, his eyes filled with a smile.

"I don't value blood ties, or rather, I don't care about them at all," Grindelwald said without hesitation. "When I was young, I even had the idea of ​​encouraging wizards and Muggles to marry each other so that every newborn child in the future could become a wizard, but because the plan would take too long, it was eventually abandoned."

Besides, you're not my direct descendant; there are four generations between us.

From the very beginning, I was interested in your identity in your previous life. Later, I learned about some of the things you were doing. This sense of identity is more important to us than blood ties.

So I want to use my abilities to help you learn some things, or rather, to prepare you for some things in advance, to see how far your future can go.

That's why I had Albus call you over, and why I wanted to clarify our relationship.
